Perioperative anaesthetic management and short-term outcome of neonatal repair of oesophageal atresia with or without tracheoesophageal fistula in Europe: A sub-analysis of the neonate and children audit of anaesthesia practice in Europe (NECTARINE) prospective multicenter observational study.
European Journal of Anaesthesiology 2023 September 30
BACKGROUND: Oesophageal atresia with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a congenital abnormality that usually requires surgical repair within the first days of life.
OBJECTIVE: Description of the perioperative anaesthetic management and outcomes of neonates undergoing surgery for oesophageal atresia with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula, included in the 'neonate and children audit of anaesthesia practice in Europe' (NECTARINE) database.
DESIGN: Sub-analyses of prospective observational NECTARINE study.
SETTING: European multicentre study.
PATIENTS: Neonates who underwent surgery for oesophageal atresia with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula in the NECTARINE cohort were selected.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Incidence rates with 95% confidence intervals were calculated for peri-operative clinical events which required a predetermined intervention, postoperative complications, and mortality.
RESULTS: One hundred and three neonates undergoing a first surgical intervention for oesophageal atresia with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula repair were identified. Their median gestational age was 38 weeks with a median birth weight of 2840 [interquartile range 2150 to 3150] grams. Invasive monitoring was used in 66% of the procedures. The incidence of perioperative clinical events was 69% (95% confidence interval 59 to 77%), of 30-day postoperative complications 47% (95% confidence interval 38 to 57%) and the 30- and 90 days mortality rates were 2.1% and 2.6%, respectively.
CONCLUSION: Oesophageal atresia with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula repair in neonates is associated with a high number of perioperative interventions in response to clinical events, a high incidence of postoperative complications, and a substantial mortality rate.
